I feel like this is a big misconception. What repairs? I've got good tenants who take care of small shite their self. I'm not going to get a call about a clogged sink.

How about when a tenant finishes their lease and vacates? Do you usually have a do a lot of cleaning/repairs then...like carpets, paint etc? Do you do that yourself or do you contract it out? Also how much security deposit do you take from each renter?

I have a checklist I provide each tenant that is leaving.

For example, if I have to clean the refrigerator? $50 is deducted from your security deposit.

Oh, the kitchen isn't swept and mopped? That will be $25. etc....
